Description

Technical Overview

The Bently Nevada 21000-16-05-20-033-00-02 Proximity Probe Housing Assembly is a precision-engineered component designed for demanding industrial condition monitoring applications. As part of the industry-standard 3300 XL series ecosystem, this housing assembly ensures optimal mechanical integration, electromagnetic shielding, and thermal stability for high-reliability vibration and position measurements in rotating machinery—such as turbines, compressors, motors, and pumps. Its robust construction supports consistent probe alignment and minimizes signal degradation caused by mechanical drift or environmental interference.

Engineered to meet stringent API 670 (4th Edition) and ISO 10816 requirements, the 21000-16-05-20-033-00-02 housing features a stainless steel body with a hermetically sealed design, offering superior resistance to oil, moisture, dust, and corrosive agents commonly found in power generation, oil & gas, and heavy manufacturing environments. The assembly includes integrated mounting hardware and calibrated thread geometry to maintain precise probe-to-target gap tolerances—critical for accurate shaft displacement and vibration analysis. Compatibility with Bently Nevada’s 3300/3300 XL proximity transducers ensures seamless system integration and diagnostic continuity across legacy and modern monitoring platforms.

Key Features

• Precision-Machined Stainless Steel Housing: Ensures long-term dimensional stability and corrosion resistance in harsh industrial settings.
• EMI/RFI Shielding Compliance: Meets IEC 61000-4-3 and MIL-STD-461G standards to preserve signal integrity in electrically noisy plant environments.
